Application Method.

Product Description.

As a methyl group donor, Hepatron® 85% is essential for proper liver health and function, cellular replication, and detoxification reactions. It also plays a role in carnitine production and kidney protection. Formulating with Hepatron® 85% reduces costs and allows methionine and choline to do their important work.

Hepatron® 85% is a superior betaine product that provides a source of methyl groups along with excellent quality and safety characteristics. Hepatron® 85% is more efficient than choline chloride in providing methyl groups, especially during periods of increased stress.

Hepatron® 85% in aquaculture feeds is an excellent attractant to increase feed acceptance and intake as well as cover-up off-flavors like those from plant material. As betaine is a natural component of common prey like snails, squid, and crustaceans, Hepatron® 85% brings back the natural flavor of feed.

The anhydrous betaine in Hepatron® 85% has an osmolyte effect on intestinal cell hydration, promoting high performance even under challenging growth conditions. As such, Hepatron® 85% supports intestinal stability and functionality.

Including Hepatron® 85% in the diet eliminates the need to add choline chloride, provided the other ingredients provide sufficient choline to meet the animal’s needs. An effective blend of betaine hydrochloride and anhydrous betaine, Hepatron® 85%, individual inclusion rates of Hepatron® 85% can be tailored to the specific nutritional needs of your farm.

Unlock the full potential of your animals with Hepatron® 85%. Experience the transformative effect on growth performance and overall health. Invest in Hepatron® 85% today to give your animals the support they need to thrive, even under challenging growing conditions.
